FairwayJay reports on Super Bowl 56 prop bets from leading online sportsbooks.

Prop betting action and picks for SBLVI

Super Bowl 56 has almost arrived, and it's last call to fund your online account and take advantage of the contests and bonuses provided by the top online sportsbooks. With a vast majority of the bets coming in the final 48 hours before kickoff Feb. 13 at 6:30 p.m. ET, it's also a good time to review some of the prop bets taking the most action. And also to remind you to bet with your head and maintain control of your emotions and bankroll as you bet on the Super Bowl. 

Super Bowl LVI prop betting tipsI reached out to a few leading online sportsbooks to provide some insight and information you can bet on for not only player props, but some of the specialty props that are offered for the Super Bowl.  

Whether you side with the Los Angeles Rams like I have, or ride cool Joe Burrow to bring the Bengals and Cincinnati a world championship, the Super Bowl is the pinnacle of sports betting action. Prop bets offer additional opportunities to cash in and enjoy the excitement, entertainment and engagement the Big Game provides.

Check out my Q & A with GTBets and see where the popular props and money is flowing on Super Bowl LVI

What are a few of the player prop bets that have gotten the most handle?  Overall prop bets?

a.  Total passing yards Stafford vs. Burrow
b.  National Anthem Time Over/Under 1:38
c.  First Player to Score a TD LAR
d.  First Player to Score a TD CIN

What are a few of the prop bets that have moved the most? 

The National Anthem has moved up by 10 seconds. There will be greater action and movement on more props over Super Bowl weekend. 

Do you have more future bet liability on Rams or Bengals? What is the best outcome for you in the game?

Much more liability on CIN, so the Rams is a much better outcome for us.

Most bet by ticket count for the first TD prop market?

Cooper Kupp is the favorite, and also has the most bets by count.

Has anything surprised you about Super Bowl betting so far? Notable Bets?

We have a lot of action on the coin toss, which probably has to do with the fact that we have offered a free coin toss bet to existing customers in past years, and have the promotion starting again Thursday.

New or Specialty Props drawing more interest for Super Bowl 56?

a.  The Price of Bitcoin Up or Down during the game?
b.  Will any player propose to his girlfriend on the Field after the game?

President Biden Bets

Due to U.S. regulations in most jurisdictions, you're unable to bet on most specialty props. But the leading online sportsbooks provide that opportunity, and sportsbetting.ag, an affiliate of BetOnline, provides more props insight for the Super Bowl, and over $1 million dollars in prizes and giveaways.

SportsBetting.ag posted a number of presidential “prop bets” for Biden’s pregame interview on NBC. They range from the President’s prediction to his approval rating to what topic he’ll discuss first.

Super Bowl Halftime Show Odds Shift 

For publicity, leading online sportsbooks often provide odds (prop bets) for featured Super Bowl events that are predetermined, such as the halftime show, National Anthem and commercials.

Odds for these entertainment events surrounding the game are set by oddsmakers despite understanding that small groups of people who work on these projects are “in the know” and have correct answers to the prop bets. 

SportsBetting.ag started releasing its "halftime show" Super Bowl props last week, and a number of them have been pulled off the board or seen drastic changes in odds due information from credible sources and irregular betting patterns.

For example, this week dozens of wagers within a five-minute span were placed on "The Next Episode" being the first song played during the halftime show. 

Former NFL player Warren Sapp is rumored to have seen Mickey Guyton rehearse the National Anthem and said the length of her rendition was well over 100 seconds. Chatter in Discord and Twitter regarding a Bored Ape Yacht Club Super Bowl appearance has spurred an unusual number of bets on the popular NFT being seen during the halftime show.

Keep in mind, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre and Eminem all own a Bored Ape, and Jimmy Fallon and Paris Hilton were recently pumping their apes during Fallon’s late night talk show. 

Notes for changes in odds are indicated below, and additional broadcast props filled with celebrity sightings and L.A. icons are also available.
